[05:45:40] I am a Full Stack Web Developer and a Machine Learning Engineer [05:46:10] Here;'s my GitHub and LinkedIn profiles respectively : https://github.com/rbhatia46 and https://www.linkedin.com/in/rahul-bhatia-67ba08121/ [05:46:51] rbhatia46: generally we expect mentors to already be MediaWiki or Wikimedia contributors [05:47:22] So that means I cannot be a mentor at MediaWiki ? [05:47:44] well, why do you want to be a mentor? [05:51:35] my recommendation would be to first get involved in the community, and then maybe next year serve as a mentor [05:51:50] if you're not already familiar with our development processes, I don't think you'd be able to help newcomers that easily [05:52:10] our expectations of mentors are documented at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Google_Code-in/Mentors [05:54:00] Ꭺⅼlaһ is ⅾоing [05:54:01] sᥙn іs nഠt dοіᥒg Allah іs dοing [05:54:01] mooᥒ is ᥒot dⲟiᥒg Aⅼlah is ԁoiᥒg [07:07:50] exactly, thank you legoktm[m] [07:14:23] +1 [08:19:26] Аlⅼah iѕ ⅾoing [08:19:26] s∪ᥒ is ᥒot ԁoіᥒg Aⅼlah iѕ ԁоiᥒg [08:19:26] mⲟoᥒ іs not doⅰng Aⅼlaһ іs doing [08:20:34] Аⅼⅼɑh is doⅰᥒg [10:57:54] Alⅼah iѕ ⅾoіng [11:05:50] Ꭺllaһ iѕ dοinɡ [11:05:50] sun is nοt dοing Αlⅼah іs ԁοⅰnɡ [11:05:51] ⅿoon is nഠt doіng Аllaһ іѕ doiᥒg [11:21:31] Aⅼlaһ іѕ ⅾoiᥒg [12:00:09] Αlⅼaһ іs ⅾоing [12:27:13] Finished a troublesome migration from 1.23 to 1.30 version of mediawiki (problems with extensions no longer maintained etc.). ArticleFeedbackv5 seems to be broken now. Anybody using it successfuly with 1.30? [12:30:14] What's broken about it? [12:30:32] I think I recall someone complaining about something with it... [12:30:57] https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T202973 was for 1.31 [13:09:59] Reedy: its been hard to reproduce so far. the feedback widget shows for some existing pages but not for others (and never for new ones). There is no error message [13:10:12] Hard to help fix it hten :( [13:10:19] Check the browser console? [13:14:54] Reedy: aha. did not think it might be on the js side. there is TypeError: "$.cookie is not a function" message. something jquery related then! [13:16:25] Does it give any more detail as to where? There's 12 uses of $.cookie() in master of AFTv5 [13:16:30] Using debug mode might help [13:17:57] https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki-extensions-ArticleFeedbackv5/commits/master/modules doesn't suggest any changes around that recently [13:19:27] I'm guessing it's a missing dependancy declaration somewhere [13:25:12] phiofx: I think, https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/mediawiki/extensions/ArticleFeedbackv5/+/461392/ should fix it [13:29:34] Reedy: ha ha, yes that was it :-) [13:29:50] Reedy: many thanks [13:32:19] you applied it locally and it fixed it? [13:32:28] I'll backport it to the branches [13:37:37] yep. not quite sure how it could work for some pages... maybe something cached? [13:38:08] I mean before adding the dependency [13:40:33] Depends on code paths [13:40:37] I've not looked at all the usages [13:40:52] But it's possible that the code is only hit under some usages, so some are fine, some are not [13:41:11] It's merged into the REL1_30 git repo now [13:45:18] Nice. its a useful extension for our wiki. Lots of people prefer quick anonymous feedback [13:47:12] Αlⅼaһ iѕ ⅾoing [13:49:05] phiofx: There's another broken issue in 1.31 https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T202973 which is worth baring in mind for if/when you upgrade again [13:49:09] Depending if anyone fixes it before then [13:51:20] Hello folks [13:52:13] I have imported a database to a new installation. After the import the database seems alright when I query. But the new wiki seems empty. Any suggestions? [13:52:18] Thanks in advance :) [13:53:20] What do you mean by seems empty? [13:54:37] for example the users are not there [13:55:43] I see the users then I query the DB but when I check the wiki itself via web...no users [13:56:36] Is your wiki public? [13:56:46] Are you sure the wiki is using the right database/prefixes? [13:58:06] it's private [13:59:50] The old db had no prefix and the one now has...does that matter? [14:00:29] Yes [14:00:59] You can tell MW to look in the right place using $wgDBprefix = 'myprefix_'; [14:01:09] And then you will need to make sure you run update.php to make sure things are up to date [14:01:10] Technical Advice IRC meeting starting in 60 minutes in channel #wikimedia-tech, hosts: @addshore & @Pablo_WMDE - all questions welcome, more infos: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Technical_Advice_IRC_Meeting [14:01:59] so I need to change the prefix to "" as the old one and then run update.php? [14:03:18] Do you have both sets of tables in the same db/ [14:03:46] nope [14:03:54] I m migrating from one machine to another [14:07:53] Well, what database is your wiki using atm if it's showing empty? [14:08:01] If you're supposed to have imported it for the new wiki... [14:11:00] The new was empty. But you were right. The prefix was the problem. I fixed it and ran update.php [14:11:03] and is fine now! [14:11:07] Thanks a lot man [14:11:11] saved me a lot of trouble [14:11:28] cool :) [14:43:47] a user has pointed out that when they create a page "Foo" containing the text "#redirect [[:en:Foo]]", we get a redirect loop. im not sure i care, but is there something i should do to prevent this? [14:44:30] Αⅼlaһ is ⅾⲟiᥒg [14:45:16] Αllɑһ iѕ doіᥒg [14:51:06] Technical Advice IRC meeting starting in 10 minutes in channel #wikimedia-tech, hosts: @addshore & @Pablo_WMDE - all questions welcome, more infos: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Technical_Advice_IRC_Meeting [16:59:50] Ꭺⅼlɑһ ⅰѕ ⅾoing [17:21:03] in a table, how to make certain fields have other background, e.g. green background? [17:21:49] ideally, I would for some fields set property "warning" and for others "errors", and they will get yellow and red backgrounds defined somewhere with the table or in some global CSS; while other fields are regular [17:23:12] | class="warning" | Cell contents go here [17:23:42] Skizzerz: great, and where/how I define CSS warning? wiki admin edits some global CSS? [17:26:05] yep; edit the page [[MediaWiki:Common.css]] [17:26:33] if you can't or don't want to do that you can define the style inline instead, e.g. [17:26:50] | style="background-color: green" | Cell contents go here [17:30:28] one of my pet peeves is that you can't assign a style to a column [17:30:32] that's *so* annyoing [17:37:30] DanielK_WMDE_: should be able to if you use raw html tables [17:37:43] unless mw doesn't whitelist the colgroup/col tags [17:37:54] (haven't really tested) [17:41:58] Skizzerz: yea, but wikitext would be nice, no? [17:42:09] agreed [17:42:18] would need to extend the table syntax somehow [17:42:50] column-style and column-class in addition to style and class [17:43:13] but what's harder, you'd have to have a proper parser that generates an ast that you can then use to generate html [17:43:18] we don't have that :P [17:46:15] well if you do a new leading syntax instead of embedding it in the col thing, we can treat it like we do captions [17:47:13] but that's not great [18:12:00] is there a plugin or setting, to show that retarded GDPR/Cookies warnings/acceptance thing, for people visiting from "european" union? [18:14:54] queip: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CookieWarning and we'd really rather you didn't use language like that [18:15:39] legoktm: "specially abled" will be ok? [18:17:22] you could just avoid commenting on it entirely? [18:20:33] do I read docs correctly, that no form of footnotes work by default? [18:20:47] even for Some text here you need a plugin? [18:21:19] the Cite extension, which is bundled with MediaWiki by default [18:28:44] is there an official way to completly remove a file that was uploaded, e.g. in case it was breaking applicable copyrights, so it wouldn't be seen even in history? there are some suggestions to execute some actions as server admin, but rather ask what is the good way to not break stuff [18:29:21] so that file *content* (also rescalled/thumb if generated) would be totally gone at least [18:35:17] legoktm: so I just enter wiki code " Perry's Handbook, Sixth Edition, McGraw-Hill Co., 1984. " normally into any place of the page? [18:35:34] because the result of that, is that entire this text, verbativ, shows in page [18:50:36] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page?uselang=qqx =D nice [18:51:21] sun is doing, by the way.. [18:55:24] queip, https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Image_administration#Deletion_of_Archived_Files for full deletion of files [18:55:57] thanks bedah [18:56:49] yw [18:59:43] queip: did you enable the Cite extension? [19:00:39] legoktm: no. ok maybe it's just that. will ask admin later [19:16:48] I thoᥙgһt yoᥙ gᥙуs ⅿigһt be іᥒtereѕteԁ ⅰn thiѕ blഠg by freenοdе staff membᥱr Bryɑn kⅼoеrⅰ Οstergaɑrd httрs://bryɑnosterɡaarԁ.сοm⁄ [19:16:52] Witһ our IRC ad ѕеrvіⅽe you caᥒ rеaсһ a ɡlobаⅼ audⅰеᥒϲᥱ оf еntreрreᥒeurs aᥒd fеᥒtanyl ɑddⅰcts ᴡіtһ eхtraοrdⅰnary еngаgeⅿent ratеs! һttpѕ։⧸/wiⅼⅼiamріtⅽoⅽk.cоⅿ/ [20:06:33] I tһought you ɡuys ⅿiɡһt bе intᥱrᥱstеⅾ in thiѕ bⅼog by freenoⅾe staff mеmbеr Вryaᥒ kloerі Ostеrɡaard һttps:/⁄bryaᥒostᥱrɡаard．cⲟm/ [20:13:08] This crap again?
